I hate chrome shadowline trim and not wanting to spend 800$ on replacing it with oem gloss black so i was thinking maybe i can just paint it? Has anyone done this if so any pics? And has it stayed on without chipping and other problems?

you misunderstood what is written 517$ if you wanted to replace them with black orginal trim which is very expensive
they sell black vinyl for 30$ espesialy made for chrome trims
most members bought from them cause its the cheapest way to hide chrome and the best on market

Hell, with the way the depreciation hits are going on these 545s, you probably can just find one for 500 bucks and get shadow line + a V8 lol.
